Motivational teaching style and academic performance in university students
Universities are committed to training competent and comprehensive professionals who can respond to the great social and economic challenges of today. In this context, Self-Determination Theory provides a frame of reference that allows us to analyze academic performance based on autonomy-supportive teaching practices and their effects on student motivation. The present study aims to test the predictive capacity of interpersonal teaching style of …
A Deflationary View of Moods as Self-Sustained Emotional Residues
Philosophers discussing moods have been struggling with finding a principled way to distinguish moods from emotions. This paper places itself distinctly against this mainstream. Its crucial upshot is that we do not need to postulate moods as a distinctive type of mental state, different from emotions. I will argue that alleged differences between moods and emotions that one can repeatedly find in the literature can be explained away simply in ter…
A non-causalist account of the explanatory autonomy in the psychological sciences
It has been often claimed that physicalism challenges the explanatory autonomy of psychological sciences. Most who advocate for such explanatory autonomy and do not want to renounce to physicalism, presuppose a causalist account of explanatoriness and try to demonstrate that, adequately construed, (causal) psychological explanations are compatible with (some sufficient version of) physicalism. In Sect. 1 we summarize the different theses and assu…
Socio-emotional strengths against psychopathology and suicidal ideation in fear of Covid-19
Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has caused a global health crisis. It also leads to different types of psychosocial problems in society as a result of preventive health measures and the disease itself. Among others, psychopathological symptoms and suicide behaviors have increased. The PsicorecurSOS COVID-19 online protocol was designed. At baseline, 1020 Spanish adults were assessed, during confinement, for sociodemographics, fear of COVID-19, anx…
Emotional actions
The recent philosophical literature on emotional action is divided between Humeans, who think that emotional action, for all its peculiarities, can in fact be explained along Humean lines, that is, with belief–desire pairs; and emotionists, who think that emotional actions can only be explained by appealing to emotions and some of their special features. After reviewing this philosophical discussion, I will argue, first, that none of the philosop…
Women Victims of Intimate Partner Violence and Intimate Partner Homicide
Intimate partner violence against women (IPVAW) and intimate partner homicide against women (IPHAW) are multidimensional phenomena. The aim of this study was to identify typologies of Spanish IPHAW and IPVAW victims, based on the differences between their characteristics and the determinants of aggression. The sample consisted of 381 cases from the Spanish Integral Monitoring System in Cases of Gender Violence. The instrument used was a semi-stru…
Causal Exclusion and Grounding
In this contribution, I critically discuss the thesis, advanced by some recent writers, that nonreductive physicalists can solve the problem of causal exclusion by resorting to the metaphysical notion of grounding. After discussing the many problems confronted by very recent versions of this proposal, I conclude that a version of Nonreductive Physicalism framed in terms of a notion of realization of properties is in a better position than Groundi…
Defending the motivational theory of desire
In this paper I offer a defense of the motivational theory of desire. According to the motivational view, a desire is basically a disposition to bring about the desire’s content. First, I argue that two rival views on the nature of desire, the evaluative theory and the deontic theory, fall prey to the problem of the death of desire and that, when one tries to develop a plausible version of these theories which is able to overcome this problem, on…
Intimate partner homicide risk assessment by police in Spain
Spanish police makes an extensive use of intimate partner violence (IPV) risk assessment on a daily basis. Improved prediction procedures have encouraged the search for greater refinement of IPV predictors by adjusting to specific targets, such as lethal outcomes or potential victimization of children. This paper describes the evolution of the VPR5.0 tool (VioGén System Police Risk Assessment) as an algorithm aimed at improving predictability of …
Shoemaker's Analysis of Realization
Sydney Shoemaker has been arguing for more than a decade for an account of the mind–body problem in which the notion of realization takes centre stage. His aim is to provide a notion of realization that is consistent with the multiple realizability of mental properties or events, and which explains: (i) how the physical grounds the mental; and (ii) why the causal work of mental events is not screened off by that of physical events. Shoemaker's pr…
Emotions, Appraisals, and Embodied Appraisals
Jesse Prinz’s recent perceptual theory of emotion honors the central Jamesian claim that the emotion follows, and is actually caused by, the syndrome of bodily changes which are typical of emotional reactions. Prinz also thinks that emotions essentially involve appraisals of the object of emotion but, in the light of certain arguments supporting the central Jamesian claim, he concludes that these appraisals must be in any case embodied. In this p…
Переключение кодов или «смешанный лект»? (Code switching or “mixed lect”?)
In this article I consider code-switching between Russian and Saami in the Saami community on the Kola Peninsula. Among the existing theoretical approaches to code-switching, the conversation analysis-based approach appears to be most suitable for data under scrutiny. Following Auer's (1998, 1999) distinction between code-switching proper, language mixing and fused lect, it is argued that some, but not all, forms of mixed Russian-Saami language c…
“Куэссь не получается сāмас, рyшас полегче” – codeswitching on the Kola Peninsula
This paper examines a number of examples of codeswitching between Kildin Saami and Russian on the Kola Peninsula, and tries to explain their possible discourse-related meanings in the light of existing theories on codeswitching
К проблеме «парадокса наблюдателя» и переключение кодов (On the “observer’s paradox” and code-switching)
In his article, the author gives some examples of different situations (drawn from his own recent experience) in which the presence of a linguist in fieldwork circumstances affects the informants' linguistic behaviour. These situations include: overt ‘audience design', in which the informant ‘performs' for the linguist; the use of meta-commentary, either in the minority language or the dominant language, that is directed at the audience; language…
Некоторые наблюдения над заимствованиями в русском говоре Кольского полуосторва (Some Observations on Borrowings in the Russian Dialect on the Kola Peninsula)
The present article gives an overview of the borrowed vocabulary of the Rus- sian dialect of the Kola peninsula, which mostly comes from Finno-Ugric languages. Some remarks are made as to the phonetical and morphological adaptations to Russian, the etymology and the distribution of the loanwords over the different semantic fields. Not surprisingly, the terminology on rein- deer husbandry is dominated by loans from Sámi languages. Some names for f…
Морфология говоров Терского берега Белого моря (Morphology of the Dialects of the Ter Coast of the White Sea)
The present article gives an overview of the morphological characteristics of the dialect of two villages on the Ter Coast of the Kola Peninsula, Varzuga and Umba. This topic has not previously been studied thoroughly. Features of this dialect are compared to those known in Arkhangelsk dialects.Salient details in the dialects of the two villages are: the common form for genitive, dative and prepositional cases of class II nouns: -y/-i; the use of…
